Living Alone: Why It's Riskier for Younger Adults Than for Seniors

Living alone is often seen as a health risk primarily for older people. But a new study of nearly 600,000 adults reveals a surprising pattern: among 18- to 64-year-olds, the risk of death was 22 percent higher, compared with just six percent among seniors. Researchers investigated what might explain this striking difference.

New Flu Variant: Why Young People May Be Especially Vulnerable

Okra Water and Blood Sugar: Why the TikTok Trend Gets It Wrong
